WordPress censoring Blogs?

  • Unknown's avatar

    We enter / search tags we make on posts and they are not showing up in Reader and the stats are questionable at best.

    Either WordPress is broken or it is engaged in censorship that many are complaining about. People come to wordpress to get beyond the trivial petty tyrants and engage in thoughtful active discussion.

    The political agenda censorship stops or we are off to another blog site without hesitation.

  • Censorship? We don’t do that at WordPress.com.

    The issue is that you are using too many categories or tags. In most cases, there’s no need to assign more than a handful of tags per post. If you use more than 15 tags and categories (total), your posts will not appear on topic pages (because you don’t want to see irrelevant content showing up there, and neither do we).

    Sorry but your response “using too many categories or tags” is not pertinent to the problem in this case. Please address the issue without Deflection/Misdirection. Other WordPress Bloggers tested the system, ran test posts as well and were Censored Out.

    If WordPress is uncomfortable with our business than please let us know.

  • I assure you, this is the source of the issue. Many of your recent posts have 25+ tags and categories. This will cause them to not appear in the WordPress.com search.

    For example, this post has a total of 31 tags/categories (20 tags and 11 categories).

    For a test, try making your next post with fewer than 15 tags/categories. It will show up in the search.

    There are WordPress.com sites with every topic under the sun that you could think of. With only a few exceptions as listed in the TOS (spam, porn, etc), we do not censor or block any of them.

    Please stop. You have no idea what posts we used for testing, nor will we inform you of which ones and who posted them where. To do so would compromise our sources and proofs, expose people to further actions against their Right to Free Speech, Free and Open Discussion.

    As for “sites with every topic under the sun that you could think of.” that does not address certain posts/blogs from people that may not agree with certain militant political agenda driven petty tyrants from being limited from distribution across, visibility as per our initial comment.

    We thank you for your civility, time and attention to the concerns of the many authors being targeted, again either willfully or coerced.

    We will not reply any further as this discussion has hit the proverbial wall of ‘The Castle’.
